We have our favorites of the year as usual. And we have once again asked some friends to contribute lists (a couple bonus voices on the podcast even!). Give the lists a view, check out the podcast with clips of all the bands/songs and check out the playlist with all the favorites below.
Happy New Year! Let’s get into the lists!

This month we talked to Logan Butler. If you’ve been upstairs at any of our recent record fairs at Counter Weight Brewing Co. then there’s a good chance you’ve at least seen him and possibly even conversed!
Get Awesome Records / Logan Butler
Logan’s been in various bands/musical projects (Wolverine Carcass, Wicked King Wicker, Kudzu…) and has had numerous music industry jobs (The End, The Omega Order, Napalm Records) and we talk about those and music in general. We talk about the possibility of Get Awesome Records (his record selling operation) opening a physical location in NY (ideally somewhere between the NYC and Poughkeepsie).
City of Iron is a band based out of (practices in) Meriden, CT. We were joined by 5 out of 6 of the members (Tyler got stuck at work). We talk about music. We talk about video games. There’s a decent amount of laughing. Check it out!
Honestly, this one is just a fun romp with a fun crew. A crew bonded by work and… anything I say about it would just ruin it. Just give it a listen. Oh, and there’s a snippet of new unreleased as yet music!
This month on the podcast we talk to our friend, Migz (Michael Miglietta), who is an artist of varying disciplines.
We talk about what we’re listening to. We talk about live painting demonstrations. We talk about Parlay Droner, Migz’s musical project. And we veer out in many directions including a show he’s got booked at Counter Weight Brewing coming up quick:
On this episode we talk to Meriden’s own Toby Driver! Maudlin of the Well, Tartar Lamb, Alora Crucible and many other bands/projects are on his resume. His band, Kayo Dot, has a new record and we talk about that quite a bit and delve into some AI discussion and generally talk about music and his journey within it!
